Title: The New g-2 Experiment at Fermilab

Speaker: Mandy Rominsky (Fermilab)

Abstract:

The measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon provides a test of the standard model and a handle on physics beyond the standard model. There is currently a 3 sigma discrepancy between theory and experiment. With 20 times the statistics and a factor of 4 improvement in the systematic errors, a new experiment at Fermilab aims to resolve this difference. In this talk I’ll discuss the experiment and our recent progress.
